Kim and Sasha, I considered Gary to be like my own brother, rather than just a brother-in-law. He was one of the nicest people I've ever known. I enjoyed being able to see him more these past few years. I know he's in heaven, and that is the only thing that makes this bearable. Please know that I wanted so badly to be able to attend his services, but my job just couldn't work it out for me to be there. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Love, Sissy
